lance armstrong is a partial owner here. i was talking to the general manager of the store, and he said they know the circle of support for lance armstrong has shrunk considerably, but there's still a great number of people who support him. he told me an anecdote of a woman who bought a bike here and after the report had come out, returned the bike and said i refuse to give that guy lance armstrong any money. but despite all of that, there is still support and he still supports the friend he's known since they were teenagers. have you told him maybe you lost faith in him? >> no. there's still a lot there. there's still a lot of things that he's done and accomplished outside of the seven tours of france. everything right now is focused on that. when you take him the person and look at all the things that he's done, people's inspired, people's helped with cancer, there's a much bigger story. and i think that part of the story will start to come around. a lot of people are sort of abandoning him really quickly and i think that
